That said, where’s the Crush Davis love, O’s fans?

Thu, 11 Jul 2013 19:49:11 +0000http://hardballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=481419#comment-528794I walked by a giants team store the other day. I’m not a giants fan, but as a camping enthusiast I was intrigued that they had tents on sale. I bought one – about $60 for a very roomy four-person dome. We took it for a spin last weekend. Middle of the night, after I’d buttoned up the door (most tents have zippers these days, but hey, it was on sale) and gotten cozy in my sleeping bag, my kid starts playing with the flashlight and asks me why there’s a big #48 on the side of the tent.

Through an individual agreement with each player, the MLBPA holds the exclusive, worldwide right to use, license and sublicense the names, numbers, nicknames, likenesses, signatures and other personal indicia of active MLB players.

Revenues are then utilized to pay expenses of the program and to support MLBPA programs. Upon authorization of the MLBPA board each year, proceeds after appropriate deductions, are then distributed to the players on a pro rata basis.

That said, I’ve heard worse tasteless puns…I’ve probably made most of them.
